The last time mine visited, I showed her around Saratoga Springs and Troy. We saw the state Capital and visited the state Museum. We also went to Bennington, Vt., so she could see Robert Frost’s grave.

She’s arriving on Tuesday this time, so she’ll miss Freihofer’s, which she’s run before, and the Elvis Festival. But there’s plenty else to do. Here’s my list so far:

If she likes art, there’s a wonderful museum in Glens Falls called The Hyde. Terrific place. Rembrandt, Ver Meer, and much more. If she has any interest in history, there’s the Old Fort House Museum in Fort Edward, and the so-called Schuyler Mansion in Schuylerville (Old Saratoga.)
